Bait-and-switch is a form of fraud used in retail sales but also employed in other contexts. First, the merchant “baits” the customer by advertising a product or service at a low price; then when the customer goes to purchase the item, they discover that it is unavailable, and the merchant pressures them instead to purchase a similar but more expensive product (“switching”). … In the United States, courts have held that the purveyor of a bait-and-switch operation may be subject to a lawsuit by customers for false advertising …

So, if a merchant can bait customers in, but then switch them onto something they don’t want, it’s illegal. But if a PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE baits voters with a certain message and then fails to deliver on it, that’s … entirely legal?! What kind of insane country is this, where you’re allowed to be a complete conman on a national level?!
Trump’s entire political strategy is about bait-and-switch, to lure voters in with promises and then default to doing whatever he pleases when he’s in power. Why is this not illegal? Why is it acceptable for a presidential candidate to outright lie, fail to deliver, and then not even have to explain to the People why? They say to be president is a service, but it’s clearly not – the president is never held accountable by the system and never has to explain themselves to voters. In America, to be president is a PRIVILEGE, not a service. You don’t “serve” as president.
The greatest power should ALWAYS be accompanied with the greatest accountability. The USA has FAILED in this respect. Trump has no accountability. That’s the whole reason why he wanted to be president in the first place. Presidents have IMMUNITY from prosecution for crimes committed while doing their jobs. Why should it EVER be necessary for the president to COMMIT A CRIME to do his job?
America’s Supreme Court is INSANE. The fact that the president can literally commit crimes with impunity is totally fucking nuts.
It was just revealed that the FBI had secretly placed, against all Rules, Regulations, Protocols, and Standards, 274 FBI Agents into the Crowd just prior to, and during, the January 6th Hoax. This is different from what Director Christopher Wray stated, over and over again! That’s right, as it now turns out, FBI Agents were at, and in, the January 6th Protest, probably acting as Agitators and Insurrectionists, but certainly not as “Law Enforcement Officials.” I want to know who each and every one of these so-called “Agents” are, and what they were up to on that now “Historic” Day. Many Great American Patriots were made to pay a very big price only for the love their Country. I owe this investigation of “Dirty Cops and Crooked Politicians” to them! Christopher Wray, the then Director of the FBI, has some major explaining to do. That’s two in a row, Comey and Wray, who got caught LYING, with our Great Country at stake. WE CAN NEVER LET THIS HAPPEN TO AMERICA AGAIN!
Donald Trump
So, trump, who incited an insurrection, is calling the insurrection he incited a “hoax” intended to frame him?
You have a laugh! It’s not HIS fault if he told his followers to march on the Capitol!!! How can you hold Trump responsible for things Trump did????? You’re clearly FRAMING him!!!!
Jesus H. … I might have just popped a blood vessel from that!
Trump is clearly becoming a parody of himself. Is the dementia finally taking hold? Is it turning his brain to mush? He’s a TOTAL IMBECILE. Surely even the most die-hard MAGA apes are distancing themselves a little bit from this abject nonsense!
Sorry, let’s just get the timeline straight here …
- Trump incites Capitol riot with inflammatory rhetoric and an exhortation to take the country back
- Trump denies all involvement in the ensuing riot (but waits to send in the National Guard for some reason)
- Trump calls the riot a hoax staged by his enemies!!!
This is COMEDY. Surely if the riot was staged by the FBI, Trump would WANT to stop it as soon as he could! And for that matter, why was his OWN FBI plotting against him?? He didn’t do a very good job of eradicating the “radical Left” or the “deep state” from government, then!
Trump’s dementia has reached critical levels. MAGA: depart now, or follow him into the abyss. Your choice.
